This is not an easy announcement for me to make, as I’m in the middle of making a coffee, but I will continue to not listen to Ed Sheeran‘s music, as I have been doing since he started putting out music.

my wife has a friend who sent Dolly Parton a painting she made & a letter explaining how much Dolly's music meant to her while she was transitioning. Dolly responded to it personally & paid for her top surgery. Sounds like an urban legend but it's real. I think we're going to more stories like this.

Reminder: Dolly Parton helped fund the Moderna vaccine for COVID.

Dolly Parton, who helped fund the Moderna vaccine, gets a ‘dose of her own medicine.’ (Published 2021)
The country music star broke into song before she was inoculated, and urged her fans to “get out there and get your shot.”

Cheaters will cheat in any facet of their lives without remorse: soccer, in relationships, on their taxes, even elections. And they’ll have no trouble feeling that the “victory” was earned, that their transgressions were justified. It’s a form of sociopathy. Fuck those people. #GoBelgium
